You didn't ask for it, but here it is anyway; your meme cleanse for the week 🤭✨ Subtle but loud ways we can continue to motivate ourselves and others during these unprecedented times. Which one is your favorite?! Disclaimer: Instagram is not therapy. These posts are not for therapeutic guidance and should not be taken as such as advice or directives.

The in-between space not many talk about. As a community healer we are holding space for our marvelous clients but may forget about holding space for ourselves too. How do we exactly hold space when we are witnessing the atrocities unfolding right in front of us? It is also debilitating but it as much as the lives directly affected. To have the ability to sit with someone who is vulnerable is one of the most powerful feelings in the world. To make space for others empowers me too to do the same for myself. I cannot show up fully for others if I do not for myself. It would be wrong to expect others to do the same if I am not doing my own work too. Read the comments for more!

A little meme cleanse for the start of your week ✨ Remember to keep on taking up space, be kind, and use your voice to speak up. Love is an act of resistance. Which meme is your favorite? ✨

Break the pattern.
You are allowed to change your mind.
Change is scary—but so is staying the same.
Have the uncomfortable conversation with yourself and with others.
You may be surprised by what you find on the other side.
Growth doesn’t come from certainty. It comes from curiosity, honesty, and courage.

“In a world full of words, speeches, and promises, remember that behavior is the greatest language.” -Unknown
“Your greatest responsibility is to use your voice, for there are so many people—too many people—who are never heard, even when they scream.” — Cleo Wade
🆘‼️ Not everyone has the ability or safety to use their voice right now. It is understandable if your nervous system feels activated, if fear or uncertainty is present, or if you are unsure what to do next. These are normal responses to witnessing harm and injustice.
Challenge those feelings and energy by turning toward community care. Visit a local museum or library. Donate to organizations doing the work. Volunteer where support is needed. Create art that allows you to express, grieve, and honor joy—and art that tells the story of your ancestors.
Be a friend to someone. Be a friend even to someone who may not look like you, sound like you, or share your lived experience. Collective care, connection, and action are powerful forms of resistance and healing.
